Photos from our Costa Rican day

Here's a few photos of our Costa Rican day. Starting off with some lasagna noodles coming off the line at Pasta Roma. Then, a shot of the milling facility at Molinas de Costa Rica.

Here, Richard Starkebaum and David Clough speak with the folks from Musmanni and Pinova, Jorge Pacheco, president and Tomas Acuna, general manager. And, of course, a tray of fresh pastries straight off the line.

In mid-February I received an incredibly generous invitation to be one of a handful of American agricultural media invited on a two-week tour of four Latin American countries' wheat facilities March 24 to April 4.

We'll be spending a whirlwind time in Colombia, Costa Rica, Peru and Mexico, speaking to the folks importing and using the wheat we grow. It's going to be an amazing learning experience.
